Seasonal and inter-annual variability of SST and chlorophyll-a off Angola
… the study of spatial and temporal variations in SST and in concentration of surface chlorophyll-a of the main oceanographic features off Angola. SST time-series over the 1987 to 2002 were derived from Meteosat 5-day SST composites with a spatial resolution of about 5-6 km in Angolan waters and a …

Quantifying the SST biases in data assimilative ocean simulations of the Benguela Upwelling System
… impact of assimilating sea surface temperature (SST) and along-track sea level anomalies (SLA) observations on predicted upwelling dynamics in the Benguela. In order to evaluate the predictive skill and impact of data assimilation, three experiments with HYCOMEnOI are evaluated: (1) with no …

Assessing the impacts of assimilating satellite SST in addition to along-track SLA into a HYCOM of the Agulhas System
… as well as satellite sea surface temperature (SST) data. The objectives of the study are to investigate the impacts of assimilating SST along with SLA into the regional HYCOM model, with the hopes of improving the model performance. The long term aim of this experiment is to develop a regional …

Observational Studies of Wave Disturbances in the Tropical Pacific and Their Relationship With Deep Cloud Activity (Global Atmospheric Research Program(garp), Fgge, Gate, Itcz, Spcz, Sst)
First GARP (Global Atmospheric Research Program) Global Experiment, Level III-b data and the outgoing longwave radiation data are used to investigate relationships between deep cloud activity and large-scale meteorological fields from May to September in 1979. Discussion is focused on the …

A Descriptive Study of the Student Support Team Process in Elementary Schools in Georgia
… information describing the Student Support Team (SST) process in elementary schools in Georgia. The research method used for the study was a quantitative analysis of data collected from a survey of randomly selected SST coordinators in elementary schools across the state. Results from the study …

Métodos Machine learning aplicados para estimar la concentración de los contaminantes de la DQO y de los SST en hidrosistemas de saneamiento urbano a partir de espectrometría UV-Visible
… de los determinantes objeto de estudio (SST y DQO (total o filtrada)), se desarrollaron varias metodologías que abarcan los siguientes puntos importantes para consolidar y evaluar un modelo quimiométrico, orientas a: evaluar la incertidumbre de los datos medidos in situ y de ensayos de …

Sea surface temperature trends around Southern Africa (focusing on the Benguela Current system and the Agulhas retroflection area)
Sea surface temperature (SST) fluctuations and changes around southern Africa have important consequences on regional weather, climate and the marine ecosystem. SST is a good indicator for upwelling strength in the Benguela Current system and therefore is linked to bio logical activity in that …

An Observational and Modeling Study of the Relationships Between United States Precipitation and Pacific Sea Surface Temperature
… in response to prescribed North Pacific SST anomalies, related to Great Plains precipitation. Summer precipitation is enhanced throughout the U.S. due to SST anomalies. The increase in precipitation is caused by enhanced low-level moisture flux, strong upper-level cyclonic circulation and …

The Changing Annual Cycle of Sea Surface Temperature
… of the reference frame, the annual cycle of SST used to quantify the aforementioned variability and changes, has long been overlooked, resulting in difficulties in under- standing the underlying physical mechanisms responsible for these variability and changes. This study strives to bridge …

Interannual variability in cloudiness, sea surface temperature, and atmospheric circulation over the midlatitude North Pacific during summer
… cloud (MSC) amount and sea surface temperature (SST) are closely coupled over the central North Pacific during summer. Increased (decreased) MSC amount occurs with decreased (increased) SST, resulting from coincident meridional shifts in the regions of strong SST gradient and cloud gradient …

Sea surface and related subsurface temperature anomalies at several positions in the Northeast Pacific Ocean.
Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies from previous sources have been relation to subsurface temperature anomalies from BT's at six positions in the Northeast Pacific. In this manner some understanding of the value of SST anomalies as indicators of ocean energy states is achieved. Results show …

An investigation into the impacts of the Benguela Niño on rainfall over southern Africa
… idealizations of observed regional and remote SST anomalies during various Benguela Niño events were performed. It is found that SST forcing in tropical South East Atlantic induces a regional baroclinic response and that a Benguela Niño is capable of forcing anomalous wet conditions over …

Air-sea interaction at contrasting sites in the Eastern Tropical Pacific : mesoscale variability and atmospheric convection at 10°N
… observations of sea surface temperature (SST) reveals marked differences in the role of ocean dynamics in modulating SST. At a near-equatorial site (3°S), the 1997-1998 El Nifio event dominated the evolution of SST and surface heat fluxes, and it is found that wind-driven southward Ekman …

Coastal climate change and variability in the Benguela current system
… four satellite-derived Sea Surface Temperature (SST) datasets combined with various climate reanalysis data to investigate the long-term SST trends in the Benguela Upwelling System over the period 1982-2017. The use of different datasets shows different trends depending on the dataset, which is a …
